“Unnoticed Bits of Commonality”
By: Erika Hayes
Mundane.
Commonplace.
Ordinary.
A pen,
A cup,
A sin
Existing in the everyday
What is the
significance of
words,
lies,
stories;
These that
haunt mankind.
Always the
unnoticed
laboring
the daily grind.
These that intrude
on our life,
“I need a
pen!”
“Where is
my cup?”
“I hide my
sin.”
The tidbits
of humanity
Create
the words,
the lies,
the stories
of our
unnoticed bits of commonality.

ReplyDeleteAlso caught the label "things that explode from my fingertips." I know that sensation. When I wrote poetry (it's been years since I have) the poems were just suddenly there and I often had to scramble for pen and paper.
I would LOVE to read your work. That scramble is the best feeling in the world!!!
